Abstract

The article focuses on the recovery of Queensland subtropical and tropical eucalypt forest flora after the 2019-2020 wildfires. Topics include post-wildfire observations, resilience of regularly burnt forests, benefits of follow-up burns, and the impact of fire on sapling density. It also highlights the positive outcomes of regular burning, such as maintaining a healthy grass layer and promoting the growth of obligate seeder species.
